It is vitally important that Ontario to develop an integrated energy policy, geared for the immediate and long term, which is sustainable, and safe.

The elements of solar energy development can be both centralized and decentralized, on and off grid.

Individual communities, towns and individuals could bring together resources in order to develop infrastructure suitable for their needs. Examples of this approach are numerous in European countries, such as Denmark and Germany.

Sustainable industries provide jobs, in terms of setting systems up and keeping them going, as well as in the manufacturing process for diverse solar technologies.

Nuclear is very expensive...both economically and environmentally.

The repair and upgrade of a nuclear generating statons is a long process, with escalating costs.The problem of nuclear waste disposal has not been solved, with toxicity lasting for hundreds oh thousands of years.

Take up with the program which is safe, provides jobs, gives resilience and affordability to the citizens of Ontario.

Do we hat needs to be done for sustainability, the sooner the better. Stabilize climate change with development of new technologies  and conservation.

Do not renew the present nuclear generating Stations..it is an expensive way to boil water...

Sincerely, Pieter Bergen
